May 11, 2021
Best pediatritian in Pittsburgh! She is very thorough, thoughtful, considerate and their practice is inclusive and diverse. She takes time to get to know each family, cares deeply about the children in her care and this review is a long time coming. We see other pediatritians there too, like Dr. Sam and she is amazing too! My son was born in a snow storm with a heart condition and she arrived in the morning to check on him and returned the next day....in really awful weather, she calculates his med doses and always triple checks, researches, and confers with drs for my kids care. we love her. we have friends that started going and they love her too!
